Hi Martin,

Nautilus sets up the text targets it can accept with
gtk_target_list_add_text_targets, so these are the targets it can accept
right now:

UTF8_STRING
COMPOUND_TEXT
STRING
text/plain;charset=utf-8 (this depends on the locale)
text/plain

Nautilus could support rich text dropping by using
gtk_target_list_add_rich_text_targets, but it doesn't.

I think you could also drop arbitrary formats into the nautilus root
window by offering "text/uri-list" and saving the contents to some temp
file, but perhaps that's more than what we want now.

Cheers,

Tomeu
